Homerun.



Nice to see him back.

Crazy,



I assume you have him on one of your teams?



We have him in our online championship team and definitely nice seeing a HR tonight and some runs scored tonight. Not that I'm complaining about J Baker, but it'd be nice to have McCann back!



Enjoy Mauer's return... keep you fingers crossed he stays healthy.

Enjoy Mauer's return... keep you fingers crossed he stays healthy. I have him on one of my teams (15 team league). He honestly wasn't a player I was even targeting, big time risk, I could have easily past on him. Then the 9th round came, and I was definitely thinking, at what point is it worth taking a chance on him? 9th round right before the turn seemed right. I was pretty happy about the pick, I'm always trying to see if I can get an edge somewhere. I got Ervin Santana in the 15th, that's another risk/reward pick will hopefully work out.



I had Carlos Ruiz to start the year for him, then when he went down I picked up Coste. In 3 weeks I got zero homers, 4 rbi's, one run and a Mendoza Line out of my 2nd catcher slot. In one day with Mauer I got a homerun, 3 runs and an rbi. Yippee!



Hopefully it works out, but like I said, not a brilliant pick, just a risk/reward pick I couldn't pass on. I'm crossing my fingers and praying for another batting title.
